For Episode 8 of PuckPedia Cap Central, Hart Levine and Keith Kavanaugh dive into the big signings that happened over the last week. First they talk about the Philip Broberg extension with the St. Louis Blues, he signed a 6-year, $48M contract ($8M AAV). Then they talk about the Alexandre Texier extension with the Montreal Canadiens, he signed a 2-year, $5M contract ($2.5M AAV). Then Hart goes on a rant about the Salary Cap Floor, and why he thinks deals like the Chicago Blackhawks acquiring Ryan Ellis and his $6.25M contract to get to the floor isn’t the most efficient way to get to the floor. Then they dive into 2 teams salary cap situations, the Edmonton Oilers and the New Jersey Devils. Both teams are up against the cap and had to do some gymnastics recently to activate healthy players from LTIR. The Oilers added Adam Henrique to LTIR before activating Jake Walman and Tristan Jarry. The Devils added Stefan Noesen and Zack MacEwen to LTIR before activating Johnathan Kovacevic and Evgenii Dadonov. They finish the episode answering user-submitted questions.
